Differentiation-Induced Uroplakin III Expression Promotes Urothelial Cell Death in Response to Uropathogenic E. coli

Uropathogenic E. coli (UPEC) expressing type 1 pili underlie most urinary tract infections (UTIs). UPEC adherence to the bladder urothelium induces a rapid apoptosis and exfoliation of terminally-differentiated urothelial cells, a critical event in pathogenesis. Of the four major uroplakin proteins...
